Okay, time for a technical question. This game is not compatible with dual-core CPUs, apparently(well, it runs, but some of the animations are messed up) and I can solve this pretty easily by just resetting the affinity to one core, but I have to do this every time I start the game.

I started on a medium-sized map with forgiving AI settings, and I eventually clawed my way to the top, mostly through cultural domination.
